ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Smile and Learn English YOGA for kids – The cobra pose – Yoga practice tutorial
Hi there, friends! How are you today? I’m Namaste the Cobra, and I’m here to show you a fun yoga pose called the Cobra Pose. Do you want to learn how to be as bendy as me? Let’s get started!
The Cobra Pose is great because it helps make your back strong and your neck relaxed. It also helps you move your spine better. Let’s learn how to do it together!
First, listen carefully to my instructions. Then, we can practice the pose together.
Lie down on your tummy with your face looking at the floor. Place your hands near your shoulders.
Take a big breath in and push the floor with your hands. Lift your head and chest up like a snake!
As you breathe out, make a hissing sound like a cobra. Sssss! Hold this pose for 10 seconds. Let’s do it five times!
Are you ready? Let’s try it again:
Great job! Let’s rest a little and try it again. Remember, there’s no rush. Take it slow and enjoy the stretch!
We have just a few more times to go. You’re doing amazing! Let’s do it again:
Wow, you did it! Now you know how to do the Cobra Pose. Wasn’t that fun? I loved showing you how to do it. See you next time, little yogis! Namaste!

Animal Yoga Adventure: Let’s pretend to be different animals doing yoga! After practicing the Cobra Pose, think of other animals and how they might stretch. Can you be a cat stretching its back or a dog doing a downward dog pose? Try to make up your own animal yoga pose and show it to your friends or family. What sound does your animal make?
Nature Walk Observation: Next time you go for a walk or play outside, look for things that remind you of the Cobra Pose. Can you find a snake, or maybe a stick that looks like a snake? How does the snake move? Try to move like a snake, slithering on the ground. What other things can you find that remind you of yoga poses?
Yoga Story Time: Create a story about a little cobra who loves doing yoga. What adventures does the cobra go on? Does it meet other animals who do yoga too? Draw pictures of your story and share it with your class or family. How does the cobra feel after doing yoga?
